I am good with deadlines and budgets - while still being able to maintain vision and beauty. I have years of experience in the film/tv and bridal worlds. For the past 4 years, I have been the Head Tailor/Pattern Maker for the HBO show Boardwalk Empire. My strength is in being able to discern the beauty in most anything - from houses with wood paneling and holes in the floor to discarded 'out-of-date' clothing. I also love creating clothing with a mix of period and contemporary elements. I am very interested in sustainable manufacturing and "recycled" goods. I love being given a drawing of a dress or a room or a hat and told 'make this please'.
